Abstract: Methods of prolonging survival of allotransplanted cells, tissues or organs are presented. These methods are directed to administering to the allograft recipient an inhibitor of complement activity together with one or more immunosuppressants and/or immunosuppressive methods. The inhibitor of complement activity is administered chronically. These methods have been determined to aid in preventing chronic rejection of allografts. These methods can additionally be used in cases in which the recipient has been presensitized to the allograft or in which there is an ABO mismatch between the allograft and the recipient.

Title: Rotating blade guide assembly
Inventor: JOURDAN JAMES K
IPC: B27B13/10
Filed: 2006-03-24
Granted: 2011-07-05
Abstract: A rotating blade guide assembly includes a blade guide carrier and means for rotating the carrier from a first position to a second position. The support structure for the assembly provides a means of supporting the assembly in both positions while allowing an opening for the band to be inserted without twisting in the first position. The first position would be that blade orientation when the blade is placed about a pair of band wheels. The second position would be the blade orientation when the blade is rotated 90° to a cutting position. In this way, the orientation of the blade is changed when the blade guide carrier is rotated from the first position to the second position. The assembly further provides means for securing the blade guide carrier in the second position to provide accurate alignment and prevent rotation of the carrier during use.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining cross-talk coefficients in curves, such as sigmoid-type or growth curves, and PCR curves and nucleic acid melting curves in particular, as well as for applying the cross-talk coefficients to produce cross-talk corrected data sets using a linear subtractive model. Cross-talk signal coefficients are determined using cross-talk data acquired across the entire signal acquisition range. Analyzing across all of the signal curve data provides for a more robust cross-talk correction across the entire data acquisition range. A linear subtractive model is used to correct data sets having cross-talk components.

Title: Localized corrosion monitoring device for limited conductivity fluids
Inventor: HAMMONDS PAUL
IPC: G01N17/04
Filed: 2009-01-22
Granted: 2014-12-09
Abstract: A localized corrosion monitoring (LCM) device is modified to obtain polarization resistance (R p) from electrical resistance of a probe having a strip of metal under investigation (test electrode), a reference electrode and a temperature sensor (e.g. thermocouple). This configuration allows the probe to be used in areas where only a thin film of conductive fluid is available or required to provide potential monitoring. Thus, the applicability of the LCM technique is broadened. All the above devices are expected to be configured in one item of equipment, except for the probe which may be remotely located from the rest of the equipment.

Abstract: Techniques for dynamically assigning acknowledgement (ACK) resource to a user equipment (UE) are described. For dynamic scheduling, a scheduling message may be used to send scheduling information for a single transmission of data. For semi-persistent scheduling, a scheduling message may be used to send a semi-persistent assignment for multiple transmissions of data. In an aspect, at least one field of a scheduling message, which is normally used to carry scheduling information for dynamic scheduling, may be re-used to carry an ACK resource assignment for semi-persistent scheduling. In one design, a UE may receive a scheduling message carrying a semi-persistent assignment and may obtain an assignment of ACK resource from the at least one field of the scheduling message.  The UE may receive a transmission of data sent in accordance with the semi-persistent assignment, determine ACK information for the transmission of data, and send the ACK  information with the ACK resource.
